Abstract

For potentially curable gastric carcinomas adequate surgical resection of the stomach and extensive lymphadenectomy are mandatory. En bloc resection should be performed if there is no evidence of unresectable tumor, and the scope of gastric resection and lymphadenectomy should be planned in accordance with the extent and location of the primary lesion. Published results of radical gastric resection continue to suggest the superiority of extended surgical procedures over the less extensive resections.
